The average car purchased in 2023 emits higher levels of carbon dioxide (CO₂) than its 2013 equivalent. This is due to the large proportion of SUVs in the mix, which tend to be bigger and heavier.

I can’t stand those idiot trucks that have a chopped-in-half rear bed so they can cram in an undersized back seat.

A truck is for moving shit. If you can’t fit a sheet of plywood in the back of your truck, your truck is a candy ass piece of crap powered by 100% small dick energy.

I’ve seen trucks with 8’ beds and big crew cabs. They’re like 30 feet long, though

Which pollutes more: a new SUV or a 10-year-old conventional vehicle?
